POPSConcrete that literally eats pollution. If it works, then this could be a big breakthrough indeed. However, it's not like cities are going to start re-paving roads that don't need it, or demoing & rebuilding building, (or even just repainting them with this solution)... The cost would be prohibitive. So that 50% savings (just off of 15% of concrete surfaces) is a LONG way away. Plus, this definitely doesn't curb the need for changing the way we pollute...

POPSThe Online Books Page Just in case some of you just might be suffering from the delusion that someday you might be able to shut down your computers and go and breath the fresh air that someone once told me is actually to be found outside.

POPSOldest Iraq Casualty: Americas SHAME After years of being away from hosting that daily, national discussion, Donahue returned to TV in 2002 as the host of a nightly debate-style program on MSNBC. For many people, the show was a much-needed breath of fresh air on the cable networks, increasingly dominated by right-wing pundits and media personalities. Antiwar voices long kept off these cable news channels were suddenly given a seat in the forbidden studios to take part in a national debate about the so-called war on terror. Donahue was on in the same time slot as Fox’s Bill O"Reilly. But the show didn’t last long. In fact, it didn’t even last a year, even though it was MSNBC"s top-rated program. When Donahue was fired, the network moved to hire a string of right-wing hosts. ...DN! I loved him. Replaced by... crap. How? Who owns the media in America?

POPSThe Ten Oxherding Pictures - From The Manual of Zen Buddhism From The Manual of Zen Buddhism, D.T. Suzuki By Shubun (15th Century) a series of short poems and accompanying woodcuts that are intended to illustrate the stages of a Mahāyāna Buddhist practitioner's progression towards enlightenment, as well as his or her subsequent perfection of wisdom. The pictures first appeared in their present form, as drawn by the Chinese Chán (Zen) master Kuòān Shīyuǎn (廓庵師遠), in the 12th century, and may represent a Zen Buddhist interpretation of the ten stages experienced by a Bodhisattva as outlined in various Mahāyāna sūtras, most particularly the Avataṃsaka Sūtra.

POPSGurley The GOP is a party that encourages disgracing homosexuality to win votes. It's easy to stigmatize those we don't agree with.

POPSFood of the week: Olives Tips for Preparing Olives: To pit olives, press them with the flat side of a broad bladed knife. This will help break the flesh so that you can easily remove the pit with your fingers or the knife. The brine in which olives are packed can be used as a replacement for salted water in recipes. Toss pasta with chopped olives, tomatoes, garlic, olive oil and fresh herbs of your choice. Marinate olives in olive oil, lemon zest, coriander seeds and cumin seeds.

POPSFloating Solar Houses "The SolarHome allows for ample views of the surrounding environment from almost anywhere within its small, 75 square metre frame. The little house on the water features an open-air kitchen/living area and enclosed sleeping areas in the back."

POPSGermans pioneer "passive" houses No furnace needed! Uses 1/20th the energy of typical house. I'm privileged to live in a super-insulated house that has an air-to-air heat exchange ventilation system, like this one uses, which we love, for the house has fresh air all year long. But ours has a ground-source heat pump as well.

POPSGet a Life chestnut: GEE TN, USUALLY YOU AND YOU'RE PARTNER IN CRIME ARE TOO BUSY CALLING ME EVERY NAME IN THE BOOK TO BE NICE. WHY THE SUDDEN CHANGE??? Save it. I already know the answer. Concern about my health huh? At least that's what you told eric . Oh poor chestnut, she's spending too much time on CM and her eyes are bothering her....blah, blah, blah. THIS PITIFUL ATTEMPT TO GET ME OFF OF HERE ISN'T GOING TO WORK. YOU DISGUST ME. Since I now, unsurprisingly, have been blocked from commenting, (*LOL*) I'll make my comment here. I have NO influence on the "commie" algorithms on this site whatsoever. (Duuuh!) I actually have a life outside of Clipmarks, (unlike some) and the paranoid and delusional claim, that I somehow have corresponded with the clipguys regarding Nutter's health, is beyond pitiful. FYI, Nutter, there has been no "change". I still couldn't care less about you, or your mental health... or rather, the apparent lack thereof . Get a life.

POPSReport: Bush LIED "reduced, marginalised, or mischaracterised" Nothing new. Watch now as his lackeys discover that they have some backbone, sadly missing for years, as the lame duck fills his days sticking his greasy fingers in all the spouting dikes. Tricky Dick had nothing on this bastard. A world at war, the dollar sinking, 4,000 dead US soldier to a coward c-in-c, chaotic climate, worst recession in 50 years, FEAR endemic, civil rights shot to hell, Gitmo, torture, rendition, kangaroo courts, WMD and on and on synonymous with the United States. One million Russians couldn't damage America to the extent that Bush has. A fresh start is your only salvation! Tricky was an angle in comparison. Why isn't Bush - the bushwhacker - impeached. Why is the tail still wagging the dog?
